The US Navy is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to leverage commercial developments in maintenance and sustainment coating removal technologies by deploying atmospheric plasma coating removal systems (i.e., Plasma Blast) across backlogged DOD maintenance and sustainment facilities. This effort will accelerate the initial integration and deployment of Plasma Blast units into the common operational environment of maintenance and repairs.
